Hi,

I dont know if this has been suggested before but I think it would be great to sell or in some way trade your draftpick within your league. This would give the manager even more choices he can make to improve his team (in my opinion, more available options is a good thing as long as new players can understand the options, which is the case in this case).

I really think their arent much disadvantages to this possibility other than technical problems if you keep the trading within your league. This way a manager gets the choice between keeping a pick or collect some more money to invest in other things. This would result in managers choosing between a direct profit (by not investing in scouts and selling a good pick) and a unsure long term profit (by investing in a pick and the scouting).

Greetings,

Kwyjibo

the problem i had with this idea, is that it had to stay in the league because of the scouting ... But then we got a problem that in small/inactive leagues a draft pick has more value because there are few teams going for the best best youngsters, but because of few intrested teams you probadly don't get that much money like in the good league.

Another point is that is it a small market which makes it easier to cheat(the cheating control are mostly the users who report overprized trade, and for this trades league mate only would see it and not everybody report or check for it).

With this probs, i believe it is better we stay on the other way -> first draft and then buy the player on the global market.

I thought about this aswell and you are right. The possibilities of cheating and malfunction is too high if you think about it. Sad because it would give another dimension to an allready great game. Thanks for considering the idea!
